Chapter 132: Conspiracy Theories
Sauron walked in the cold wind.
Although he was sure that there was some secret to the Phantom Circus he had encountered, he had little interest in mixing it, and many of the troubles were found by himself, and he had to learn to restrain his excessive curiosity. The rest of the Phantom Circus was easier to say, and the only thing that made Sauron unclear was the elven girl and the woman who never showed up in the carriage. The thin ice on the edge of the carriage was a memorable sight to Sauron, and the one inside seemed to have no control over his power.
Of all the spell-casting professions, the wizard is the one with the best control of spell power.
Then there are the priests and druids, whose power comes from the gods and their beliefs, but they are just as handy when it comes to control. The most uncontrollable power is the warlock's natural ability, which is why Golia fears that Vivien will cause great damage. The kingdom of Arendelle they are going to, the eldest princess who is about to ascend the throne is also a dangerous warlock, the more powerful and talented the warlock, the more dangerous it is, and it will take a long time for them to learn to control their own power.
The one inside was certainly not a wizard.
Then there is a more than 50% chance that she is a warlock, and she is also a powerful warlock who cannot fully control her own power.
Compared with!
Vivien was a lot better at controlling her strength, and she had few of the energy outbursts that other warlocks had to go through.
Warlocks' withdrawn personality is due to the early energy rampage, and sometimes they will even hurt those close to them because of their uncontrollable power.
Snowflakes falling in the sky.
The snow wasn't falling very much, but Sauron's body was still covered, and he shook off his cloak and shook the snow off the ground. It was already approaching the afternoon, and he was walking through a dense forest of coniferous trees covered with heavy snow, and the road ahead was gradually becoming much wider, which meant that he was approaching the area of human activity. There aren't many goblin kobolds in the Ice Country, and the climate here is too cold. But here are bear goblins with thick fur, a creature that is more dangerous than the gnolls.
That creature is said to be a goblin, but the size and appearance are very different, so it may be that there are really some bloodline branches.
Subspecies creatures are things that are prone to bloodline mutation!
Sauron walked about ten kilometers or so, and faintly heard the sound of music, which seemed to be a sad tune, and he listened to it with a frown, and then moved in the direction from which the music came. Camping in the wilderness in the snow country is very uncomfortable, because the climate is so cold, and sometimes the body freezes when you sleep. The temperature here is below 0 degrees Celsius all year round. Sauron was going to find a human town to rest and recover, and by the way, replenish the number of spells he had.
A group of people appeared in front of them.
Basically, they all wear fur coats, which are the most important property of the human family in the Ice and Snow Country. They have a bit of a hairy hair, and their faces are a bit like those of Northern Europeans, not as varied as in the south. People with black eyes and black hair are very common in this world (there are also elves), and some incarnations of gods are like this, but the location north of the continental shelf is more characteristic of the European race. If it is close to the desert, the racial characteristics are even more obvious, and experienced people can rely on this to determine where the other person is from.
Sauron has a distinctly southernal ethnographic identity. His hair was flaxen and black, and his pupils were close to dark brown, some of which were of human blood and some of which were features of elven blood. So when the group saw Sauron. At first glance, he recognized that he was not a native of the Ice and Snow Country, but an adventurer from outside.
An old Northland man walked out, he glanced at Sauron, and said slowly, "Outlander. Where are you going? Lately, it has not been very welcoming to outsiders. ”
Sauron leaned over slightly. Glancing at the corpses surrounding the crowd, who were holding a funeral, he replied, "I am a traveling adventurer." Would like to stay in a nearby town for a while. ”
He glanced at the center. There were three corpses on the ground, all of them were the corpses of adult men, which made him frown slightly, and said slowly: "May their souls rest in peace." I want to ask what the hell is going on? Why don't you welcome outsiders? ”
Something must have happened.
The three adult men will not die suddenly, and depending on the scale of their funerals, the dead still have some status.
The old elder hesitated for a moment, then glanced at the others, and said slowly: "Recently, a group of evil degenerates have entered the Ice and Snow Kingdom, and among them there are terrible witches, who have bewitched many people with spells, and many of them have been killed. Our town is also under threat, and the sheriff has closed the town and now does not allow outsiders to approach. ”
"Maybe you can try somewhere else!"
Sauron frowned and took a step forward, and a visibly strong man stepped forward and pressed his hand on the weapon, and the old man waved his hand to stop them, and his rich experience told him that it was not easy for an adventurer to walk alone, and there was no need to provoke the other party directly. That's why he politely refused, or he could just let people expel him, and there were a series of dead people in the town, and outsiders had been refused to set foot in their place.
As if he had seen something, Sauron turned his head and said, "Can you show me these corpses?" Maybe I can help. ”
The elder hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.
Someone in the others apparently wanted to say something, and seemed to disagree with this act of blasphemy against the deceased, for the funeral had already begun, but was stopped by the elders.
"Let's go."
Sauron pushed away the crowd in front of him and saw a woman with red eyes, standing next to her with her two children in her arms, having lost the breadwinner of the family, and she would have a hard time in the future. If you don't have a rich family property, then you can only remarry, otherwise it will be difficult for a woman to support two children. Noticing a wound on the corpse's neck, Sauron opened the deceased's eyes and looked at it, then stretched out his finger and pressed the corpse's forehead.
All three bodies are somewhat similar, all of them are grown and strong males.
Their expressions were a little weirdly distorted, as if they were in pain before they died, but there was a strange smile in the pain, and a kindler was placed on their lips. This is a tradition close to the north, and in their legend there is a god of death who is very fond of wealth, and the coin on his lips is given to them to buy money.
The wealthy put Kindler and the common people put silver Delek. If it's poor, put copper dreel.
Northern tradition holds that the souls of the dead are taken away by the god of death before they decide whether they return to the kingdom of the gods or enter the reincarnation of the Styx.
The first recipient of the soul must still be the god of death, their innate power is very strong, the god of death is one of the few gods who have survived the god of [great divine power], the god of death in ancient times [the king of the dead], the [king of the end of all things], and the [death recorder] still exist in a corner of the river Styx.
He was once the Lord of the underworld, though he is now in seclusion.
This immensely powerful ancient god of death is the only ancient god who possessed great powers in the past and has not yet fallen.
He existed for an unknown number of years, and is said to have been waiting for the end of all things!
He waits for the end of the universe. Record your final death and complete your final mission.
………………
Regarding the [Great Divine Power] of the Domination Level, He is also the only standard that can be clearly measured, because He personally separated his own power and bestowed the priesthood of death on the three gods. This ancient god of death, who is considered to be the standard of great divine power, has created three [powerful divine power] death gods from his scattered divine power, and has also stripped out the priesthood from the death god system that shrouds the multiverse.
How strong is this ancient Reaper?
Sauron's collection of information is also unclear, and the only thing he knows is that there has been a time of turmoil in the past. However, it only affected the celestial realm, and did not affect the abyss and hell, and the scope of turmoil was also very small, only concentrated in the material plane. And it has not yet affected the elemental gods, as well as some of the ancient gods. It was a time of minor turmoil, during which the three Death Lords teamed up to single-handedly take on nearly half of the Lords of the upper plane. Although they failed in the end, the consequences have been felt to this day.
Template for the Sons of Slaughter. Legend has it that he is a bloodline descendant of the god of killing among the three gods of death.
And it's not a direct bloodline yet!
A lot of information has been lost, especially since the rise of the Arcane Empire, and there is a very long fault line in time. There is a gap of more than three thousand years in the literature.
………………
Sauron's memory is full of conspiracy theories that had been prevalent for a while.
Because the destruction of the Arcane Empire coincided with the disappearance of the Great Divine Power, and after the destruction of the Arcane Empire, the Great Divine Power never appeared again. Some people speculate that in this competition, a certain god of great divine power lost, and the Arcane Empire also lost, and only the gods of the heavenly realm still existed.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain why the Arcane Empire would study the Elemental Annihilation Matter, and the Neutron Star Golem is such a terrifying existence!
Moreover, the last time there was a small upheaval, it was because the gods of great divine power forcibly took away the priesthood of other celestial gods, and conspiracy theorists believed that this was enough to make other gods want to rebel or even kill the great gods. They also enumerate some of the Arcane Empire's abilities to help slay great gods, as someone has been to the Mechanical Mirror of Clock Nirvana (challenge level 25).
Conspiracy theorists also try to speculate on the truth about this turbulent time.
It's a pity that there is no useful information, because this time not only the gods of the heavenly realm, but even the ancient gods of the abyssal hell and the elemental plane have all lost their godhead power.
This time is obviously not something that can be done by great divine powers, because this time no one in the gods will be spared!
The ancient god of death, who gave up most of his divine powers, is said to have been defeated.
………………
Sauron lifted the corpse's clothes, an act that made the others glare at him and even want to do it, as he then ripped off the dead man's clothes.
Sonorous!
Sauron drew his scimitar and pointed it at those who wanted to do it, causing them to involuntarily take a step back. He frowned and looked through the scars on the corpse, which were covered with a hideous and shocking wound.
Sauron's face was extremely gloomy, and he parted the broken flesh with his fingers, and muttered, "Snake Head Whip!?" ”
